Childbirth Education

Childbirth Education Classes are back, baby!
Rebeccah will be teaching childbirth education classes starting in August 2023 at River Valley Birth Center in St Peter. Her classes will be a 6 week series running on Friday evenings for 2 hours per week. This group childbirth education series is great for all expectant parents who desire to learn about the labor and birth process. No matter if you are planning a hospital birth or a community birth (birth center or home), this childbirth education series will provide you with a warm and welcoming environment to learn what you need to know to have a satisfying birth experience.
